2 Background The woodworking sector employs the highest ratio of apprentices in the construction sector. Apprenticeship reform opens up new opportunities for employing older apprentices and retraining individuals. This guide runs through the basics of hiring an apprentice for a BWF Member. The focus of the guide is trade skills, however, it is worth remembering that other core skills including administration and finance can be supported via apprenticeships. What are the benefits of taking on an Apprentice? You can reduce costs by having highly trained staff Create a pool of talent and a skilled workforce Expand your business Nurture talent to improve your services Fill the skills gaps in your business Ensure they work to our working methods and practices Staff that work to our quality standards Give your business a creative boost Construct stronger business foundations Inspire the future generation What age range can an Apprentice be? Apprenticeships can be any age from 16 upwards. Anyone in England over the age of 16 can apply for an apprenticeship and benefit from the opportunities offered. What is an Apprenticeship Agreement? An Apprenticeship Agreement is an agreement between you the employer and your apprentice under which the apprentice undertakes to work for the employer. The agreement is a contract of service and states that it is entered into, in connection with a qualifying Apprenticeship framework. It reflects that the Apprenticeship is primarily a job rather than training. It normally includes; the length of the apprenticeship The training you will give them Their working conditions The qualifications that they are working towards You can write your own agreement, or download one from Or use the agreement provided by your training provider. What type of training will they receive? Apprentices receive various types of training comprising a Framework and must achieve all the set milestones to receive the full Framework award. The elements include: A knowledge-based technical certificate to underpin the practical skills A Vocational Qualification showing competence (usually NVQ Levels 2 or 3) Training in essential life skills such as Communications and IT 2 P a g e

What is a Traditional Apprenticeship? A Traditional Apprenticeship combines studying at college (or training provider) with experience onsite over a two to three-year period. This is the most common way to get qualified and is available across the England How do I recruit an Apprentice? If you wish to recruit an apprentice, you can visit the government website link: 6 P a g e

7 On the above link you will find a host of interesting links. One in particular is headed Apprenticeship recruitment: employers and training organisations if you click on this link, it will lead you through to a page of documents a useful one headed Employer guide to apprenticeship recruitment The above link takes you to an Enquiry Form where you can register your interest to take on an Apprentice. There is also a telephone number that you can call to gain advice You can let the Agency know about your vacancies for free and they will facilitate working between training providers and you the employer to help you find appropriate candidates. Two useful websites full of information are: and Another route to finding an apprentice is to contact CITB; they have a team of Apprenticeship Officers that will be able to guide you through the Apprenticeship route. If you are in scope (i.e. registered with CITB) CITB will help you by arranging training for your apprentice with a local college or your nearest training provider. They will help with paying all college or training provider examination fees, helping you complete the paperwork needed to claim grants and giving advice on expenses available to cover accommodation or travel costs, their address is: You can visit their dedicated website to careers within the construction industry and register your vacancy, their address is: follow the link for employers. You can also contact local colleges and schools to see if there is a potential student looking for an Apprenticeship placement. The BWF Wow I Made That advice portal for aspiring woodworking apprentices also allows to promote your interest. Once you have chosen your Apprentice you will need a training provider You can arrange to send your Apprentice to a local college or nearest training provider. They should be quality assured and approved to deliver training. They will help you through the paperwork process and assessment of the Apprentice. Should you decide to use CITB, they will arrange this for you and help you with all the paperwork. The BWF are also working with Centres of Excellence that can offer training, for further information please contact the BWF on How much should I pay my Apprentice? You must pay your Apprentice at least the Apprentice Minimum Wage, the most up to date information on this can be found on the following website: 7 P a g e

8 How much financial support is available for the training costs? If you re an employer with a pay bill over 3 million each year, you must pay the Apprenticeship Levy to the government from 6 April The levy is based on 0.5% of their class 1 secondary NIC. You can see our Guide to Paying the Apprentice Levy here. Non-levy paying employers will share the cost of training and assessing their apprentices with government - this is called co-investment. From May 2017, in the majority of cases, you will pay 10% towards to the cost of apprenticeship training and government will pay the rest (90%), up to the funding band maximum. You as the employer must pay your apprentices a wage. Generally, the amount you can get for training, varies depending on whether the candidate is: Aged 16 to 18 less than 50 employees all training costs paid up to the funding band maximum Aged 16 to 18 more than 50 employees 90% paid by government, 10% by you up to the funding band maximum All students aged 16 to 18 you the employer, is entitled to 1000 incentive bonus from the government, 500 paid at the start and 500 paid at the end! Aged 19 upwards - 90% paid by government, 10% by you up to the funding band maximum If costs go over the funding band maximum, you have to pay the difference. How much financial support is available for the me the employer? You may get a 1,000 apprenticeship grant if your apprentice is 16 to 18 years old. You can call the National Apprenticeship Service on to check eligibility. Employer Grants from CITB England - Apprenticeship Grants: Grant Name 2-year apprenticeship to achieve NVQ 2 3-year apprenticeship to achieve NVQ 3 and inclusive of the 2-year grant Amount Employer Can Claim 6,000 max per apprentice 10,250 max per apprentice To qualify for the financial support, you need to be registered with CITB and meet the requirements, follow this link for further information: Are you thinking of qualifying existing staff? Enabling existing staff to gain qualifications helps differentiate your company from competitors, demonstrating your commitment to training. 8 P a g e

9 Renewing the interest and commitment of existing staff comes through giving them opportunities to learn, qualify and pass their skills on to others. Refreshing skills is equally vital: one of the top three reasons for staff leaving is said to be lack of new learning opportunities. CITB England offers a range of grants covering non-apprentice training & development, and technical, managerial and professional training, see below for information. Retaining skilled people is as important as creating them. Research by the Chartered Institute of Personnel & Development shows that employers who reward apprentices with the highest wages have the highest rates of retention. Other Training Grants Available Grant Name NVQ Achievement Grant inclusive in 2/3- year apprenticeship grants, but can be obtained outside of apprenticeships e.g. OSAT Craft Non-Apprentice Grant Level 2 VQ for achievement of NVQs not undertaken as part of a full apprenticeship framework Craft Non-Apprentice Grant Level 3 VQ for achievement of NVQs not undertaken as part of a full apprenticeship framework Day-rate Grants when part of a company training & development plan or under shortduration training Supplementary Payment available on top of all grants including apprenticeship grants for employers that pay a levy and on time to CITB Amount Employer Can Claim 400 per achievement 3,525 per achievement 2,625 per achievement 25 per half day 50 per full day 10% on top of any claimed grants Terms and Conditions apply. These are the published CITB rates that are available under the 2016/17 Grants Scheme. There are a host of other grants available to fund training through the grant scheme. For more information on claiming grants and full terms and conditions, please visit: 9 P a g e

10 On-site Assessment & Training (OSAT) Experienced, existing staff can be assessed (and given additional training) at your premises to achieve NVQ qualifications Levels 2-5 under OSAT. The BWF OSAT Programme provides a dedicated and tailored solution in both craft and office based occupations and is delivered in partnership with specialist training provider Didac Ltd. or contact the BWF for further information on iain.mcilwee@bwf.org.uk About the Wood Industry Training Forum: The BWF offers a range of training solutions and other services through the WITForum (Woodworking Industry Training Forum) that are tailored for the joinery industry.
